(Sorry for the slow updates, because I have been working on my other stories and busy with school. This chapter was very interesting to write due to Magma's point of view on Elemetal steve and other things. Enjoy the story and I will do my best to update often!"

(Steve saga origins Episode - The Ruins of the Steve Temple)

Magma P.O.V

The atmosphere was beginning to become tense due to Elder steve's tense, body language and rainbow steve trying to cheer him up, as they got closer to the destroyed steve temple. Magma could almost feel Elder blue's sadness for his creation to keep others safe. It reminded Magma of the protectiveness he felt when he created Dark Steve before Elemental Steve took control once again and changed Dark steve. Originally I had tried to create Dark Steve in secret from Elemental steve, to help me free myself when he took his control from me, but instead, he made dark steve evil and also controlled by him through me.

"I wish I could have done more before he was destroyed..." I thought Sadly. Unlike what Sabre thought, Magma was happy that Sabre had put Dark steve out of his misery and sad that he couldn't have lived his life. Magma looked over to see that Elder steve had started to walk faster by each second that passed until he was finally running towards the building. The duo was running as well to catch up with the Elder Steve. Now that magma thought about it, wasn't he technically Older than the Elders? Magma shuddered at the fact that he was older than the staves that were considered old.

Magma paused and tensed, looking back at the trees. Magma cursed in his head as he saw a black figure disappears behind the trees.

"Damn it! He watches himself" Magma thought annoyed while pretending that he didn't notice elemental steve. The elemental can see everything from his dimension but if he sent his shadow to watch that means he is more interested in them than Magma had originally thought. That meant that things would be harder and more of a nuisance than he thought it would be.

"no...no...No...NO NO NO!!!" Elder Blue steve shouted looking at the remains of the Temple with teary eyes. Magma winced at Rainbow Steve attempts to calm down the older steve.

"It only a building, you can always make another" Rainbow steve said and magma groaned because that was probably the worst thing he could have said at that moment. Rainbow steve seemed to also release this fact because he flinched when Elder blue looked at him with fury in his eyes.

"JUST A BUILDING!?!" The Elder snapped at rainbow steve as his face turned red in anger. "MY FRIENDS! The other Elders! This was a place that they built for a better future, for hope, for their dreams..." His shouts turning to broken whispers. "You call this building with my friends hopes nothing..." The Elder blue's emotions took a 180-degree turn and without another word he turned and flew away. Rainbow steve hunched over with tears threatening to fall.

"I don't think he meant it, but he needs you to apologize and to calm down"Magma slowly told Rainbow steve slightly shocked at Elder blue's self-control. Rainbow Steve had always been good with putting hope into steves heart which was ironic due to him being called "The Hope of the Steve's". Magma tensed feeling familiar energy behind him and turned around throwing a burning fireball at the person. The figure moved out of the way not before getting knocked back a few feet by the explosion that came once it landed. Magma stared at Elemetal steve's shadow with triumph at the fact that he hadn't lost the touch after centuries of fighting (Also maybe because he deserved it after controlling him). The black figure made no movement showing that he was in pain but Magma knew that Elemetal steve at least felt a slight sting from the attack. The figure raised its hand and waved magma is the universal symbol for "follow me to your death". Magma wasn't going to follow Elemental steve ANYWHERE even if he turned good in the future, which by the way took a generation. Suddenly 2 things clicked in magma's brain, after watching Sabre for so long his attitude and sarcasm had rubbed off on him, and second that is why Elemetal steve saved him.

"He wanted to gain my trust if I were a normal steve, Unlikely for him I am a combination of multiple normal steves," Magma thought amused at Elementals steve's simple plan. However Elemetal steve's shadows also seemed to realize this because he lowered his hand and darted forward at speeds faster than should have been possible and pushed him backward. Magma was unhurt but took a step backward only for his foot to hit the air and he began to fall into a hole. The last thing magma saw was the figure turned into black dust as he realized that he had gotten pushed into a portal to the-

"Shoot!- No way-..." Magma yelled as he harshly slammed into the marble floor taking some damage as he landed. Magma stood up on his feet feeling much more weak and vulnerable than a few seconds ago. Magma froze as he heard a voice that he thought he would never hear again.

"Hello Magma, My name is Elemental Steve, and welcome to the Inbetween"
